Overview

GISonLine was tasked to support a large scale network inventory project involving field data collections for the TAURON network of utility assets & resources. In addition, a core requirement was for TAURON to maintain critical business operations during the transition from a legacy asset management system to a modern geospatial mapping platform.

The Impact

Integration of mobile geospatial technology allowed TAURON team-members the ability to collect and inventory core utility assets and attributes while operating in the field.  

Over 40 thousand electrical poles and substations were surveyed with detailed information collected regarding their spatial locations, condition and attributes, and documention via site photos.  

The outcome

GISonLine successfully implemented a custom mobile mapping solution that supports field crews during the data collection and inventory of utility assets. The mobile app supported workflow and data management tools designed to work with specifically with geospatial data.

The custom application included reporting dashboards allowing users to track project phases with required performance indicators and issue management. As a result of the mobile applications, TAURON was able to leverage up-to-date geospatial capabilities for managing and visualizing their enterprise utility network of assets.

The Challenge:

To provide employees of the Świętokrzyskie Mountains and Ponidzie landscape parks with a geospatial mapping capability that can inventory and spatially visualize the natural, ethnographic, historical, and cultural resources associated with the parks.

The Impact:

Implementation of geospatial capabilities to visualize, inventory, and manage landscape park assets and connect geospatial capabilities to data from disparate sources: imagery, park databases, and mapping data of the region. To utilize geospatial technology to support the goal of sustainable development and preserving and popularizing the natural, historical and cultural assets of the region.

The Outcome:

GISonLine successfully developed and implemented a web-based mapping application that connected to a centralized database and used commercially available imagery and data. The geospatial mapping capability enabled park employees to view, inventory, edit, and store landscape park assets. The mapping application also provided a public facing interface for site visitors to visualize the landscape region and its natural / historical features. Benefits of the solution included:

• Providing landscape data to a wide audience
• Access to multimedia data, photos, and imagery
• Enterprise data editing via centralized database
• Communication & presentation of park protection plans

Overview

In support of the electrical transmission system operator PSE (Polskie Sieci Energetyczne), GISonLine provided geospatial support services that aided planning and decision support for the  feasibility studies associated with the planned placement of newly built 400 kV power lines. 

GISonLine obtained existing site surveys and land register maps and integrated the data into a single geospatial data model.  The site survey and land use data provided key information to combine with spatial data that provided the ability to perform spatial and statistical analysis in support of site feasibility studies and optimal placement of the electrical power line towers.

The Impact

For the feasibility studies, which included 241 kilometers of area, over 160 sheets of existing geodetic maps were obtained at various scales, as well as 35,000 feature extracts from the land and building register which were converted and stored in the newly designed digital database.

The Outcome

GISonLine successfully collated and integrated the site data obtained from the geodetic maps and land & building registry to form a single instance of a digital database.

Using the obtained data, GISonLine integrated the information into the Esri ArcGIS environment and performed a series of geo-statistical analysis, map visualizations, and created a set of spatial reports.

The spatial analysis and visualizations enabled the project contractors and stakeholders to visualize the number of plots through which the proposed power lines were planned to be developed. In addition, the spatial analysis provided key decision support to optimally design the final course and layout of the proposed high-voltage lines and towers.  

Deliverables and tasks under this project included:

• Acquiring data from regional surveying centers
• Conversion of data to spatial / vector formats
• Construction of the spatial data model
• Creating thematic maps using Esri ArcGIS
• Performing spatial and statistical analysis

Overview

In support of the local government (Świętokrzyskie region in Poland) ecological initiatives and investments, GISonLine was tasked to establish geodatabases and a custom web mapping portal that displayed the thematic maps containing the local government’s investments in ecological projects.

The Impact

As part of the project data was obtained and organized from over 150 institutions and local government units from the Świętokrzyskie region. The data was then used to provide attribute and content information to feed the database and populate the local government web-based mapping platform.

The Outcome

GISonLine successfully collected and developed a set geospatial feature layers (with feature attribution) to establish the thematic database displaying spatially where the investments occured in support of ecological initiatives. The project included creation of a web-based mapping portal using Esri ArcGIS Online and supported the local government representatives and project stakeholders with investment decision support. Deliverables associated with the project included:

• Design and creation of web-based portal using Esri ArcGIS Online
• Packaging and delivery of Esri Shapefiles & GML formats
• Map prints displaying ecological initiatives and their locations
• Instructional training on ArcGIS portal
